LOL good on you

Scratch mixes are definitely my favorite! As Fromscratch says, "If it ain't scratch, fix it".

That is what it's all about. Find what is best for you and go for it. So glad the red velvet worked for you. Lots of people have trouble with that.

i still haven't found a good scratch cake recipe i like. i've tried several on my family and they don't like it...so i'll continue to search.

hi! can you share your red velvet recipie there are tons of them but non of them has got me yet thank you

I have tried three red velvet recipes and I didn't like any of them. I envy you.... I wish I could find one good recipe

Would anyone like to share their red velvet recipe???

The one from Elisa Strauss is AWESOME!!!!

If your family is complaining about scratch cakes, try using oil instead of butter. I find that butter makes the cake feel "dry" (although it totally isn't!!!!).
